FAQs

What is the 'University Blue Gradient' colorway?

This colorway features a smooth transition of color on the upper, starting with a lighter blue and deepening into a richer 'University Blue'.

What is Tuned Air technology?

Tuned Air is an innovative cushioning system by Nike that provides responsive support by tailoring the air units to specific areas of the midsole for optimized comfort and stability.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The Air Max Plus is primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear, offering comfort and style. For dedicated running, consider Nike's performance running shoe lines.

How do I find my correct UK size?

Refer to the Nike sizing chart or measure your foot length from heel to toe and compare it with the provided size guide. This specific variant is a UK size 5.5.

What inspired the design of the Air Max Plus?

The design draws inspiration from nature, particularly the visual of palm trees swaying in the wind, reflected in the wavy TPU overlays.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

It is not recommended to machine wash the Nike Air Max Plus. Hand washing with mild soap and water is the preferred method for cleaning.

What is the material of the upper?

The upper is primarily constructed from breathable mesh with distinctive wavy TPU overlays.

Troubleshooting

Color bleeding on mesh

Avoid excessive moisture and harsh cleaning agents. Clean gently with mild soap and water. Ensure trainers are fully dry before storage.

Reduced cushioning feel

The Tuned Air technology may take a short break-in period. Ensure the shoe fits correctly. If the issue persists, check for damage to the sole.

Traction on wet surfaces is reduced

While the rubber outsole provides good grip, extreme wet conditions can affect traction. Clean the outsole regularly to ensure the tread pattern is free of debris.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Comfortable cushioning provided by Tuned Air technology.
  • Durable construction suitable for everyday wear.
  • Retro aesthetic appealing to fans of 90s fashion.
  • Good grip from the aggressive tread pattern on the outsole.

Cons

  • The prominent gradient design may be too bold for some preferences.
